Notepad++ is awesome! kudos to the developer, one of those must have replacements on windows 😉👍
Multi-edit is huge. It’s literally THE reason why I use sublime text from time to time.
I frequently copy text from NP++ to sublime. do a multi edit, then copy it back over multiple times a day.
Genuine question, why use both Sublime and NP++?
Multi-edit?
Why bother with NP++ if you already own sublime, which is arguably equivalent or better, is my question. I use Sublime and I am wondering what feature could be missing to justify still having NP++ installed.
Can you use Sublime in evaluation mode?
NPP is indispensable, it is the Windows killer-app.
Congrats on the release!
I have 200 unsaved notes just waiting in the memory guillotine for when something accidentally wipes them. I salute you, Notepad++.
It’s so bad but so good. It’s like a poweruser variation of keeping important stuff in the recycle bin.
White knuckle, tightrope note taking. I just do it for the rush.
Congratulations to everyone involved! I don’t use Windows anymore, but when I did, NPP was one of the first things to get installed. Super useful.
Same. I wonder if they’ll create a Linux port at some point (GTK themes?), because there just isn’t anything quite like it.

Still the best, can’t believe it’s been 20 years.
I used Crimson Editor before I found Notepad++ and I can’t believe it’s been that long. Cheers to 20 years!
I’ve switched from NPP years ago. Can somebody please explain why it’s so popular?
It’s snappier and more private than VSCode at the very least.
idk why people don’t just use codium instead
Because of the snappiness – codium is no faster than code. For me, NPP is used for making single-word changes to a bunch of files in a row–like vim, but a GUI.
